05/22/2026

weekend is upon us, Portland. And with that comes heavier traffic, packed highways, busy campgrounds, and long drives across Oregon as families and friends head out to enjoy the long holiday weekend. If you’re towing a trailer to the coast, heading toward Mt. Hood, launching a boat, or simply navigating the city, try to take a few extra minutes before you hit the road:

• Check your tires & trailer connections
• Test your lights & brakes
• Give yourself extra travel time
• Slow down in heavy traffic zones
• Put the phone down and stay focused
• Never drive impaired or exhausted
• Save our number for roadside emergencies (503)253-3030

A little preparation now can prevent a major problem later. Most importantly, as we gather this weekend, let’s remember what Memorial Day is truly about…. honoring the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. May they never be forgotten🇺🇸🫡

From all of us at Northwestern Towing, travel safe, look out for each other, and enjoy the weekend responsibly.

Every call we respond to started with someone just trying to get home. A simple quick trip. A innocent late night drive. A normal day that changed in seconds.

At Northwestern Towing & Recovery, we see the aftermath far too often. That’s why this message matters. YOU matter!

✔️ Buckle up. ✔️ Slow down in the rain. ✔️ Watch out for emergency crews working roadside.

We proudly serve Portland and the surrounding communities 24/7, but the goal is simple: We’d rather see you safely arrive home than meet you or your loved ones on their worst day. Drive smart, Portland. Your family wants you home. We want you home❤️

🌹To all the moms out there carrying more weight than anyone realizes…. Strong enough to pull others out of the dark… even while carrying battles nobody sees, we see you.🦾🪝No days off, no quitting & no backup plan…. mothers carry the kind of weight most people would fold under… and somehow still keep the engine running for everyone around them. We salute you! 🫡

Happy Mother’s Day from Northwestern Towing. ❤️

🦾🪝 MOVE OVER. IT’S THE LAW. 🪝🚨

As we bring April to a close, it is critical to continue to honor Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and across Portland, Sandy, Gresham, and the entire Mt. Hood corridor, we’re asking every driver to lock in and pay attention. Because out here… this isn’t theory. This is real life, real risk, real death & real people standing inches from traffic. At Northwestern Towing, our crews operate daily on I-5, I-84, Highway 26, backroads through Sandy, and mountain routes toward Mt. Hood, in rain, darkness, congestion and chaos. We show up when things go wrong… and we stay in the danger zone until the job is done. All it takes is one distracted driver. One text. One scroll. One second.

That’s the difference between a safe recovery… and something far worse. Oregon Law (ORS 811.147) requires drivers to: Move over for emergency vehicles and tow trucks. Slow down when changing lanes isn’t possible. Stay alert in active roadside work zones. This law exists because lives depend on it. Put the phone down! Slow it down! MOVE OVER!

We’re proud to serve Portland, Sandy, Gresham, Troutdale, and the Mt. Hood communities with:
🪝Heavy-Duty Towing & Rotator Service
🪝Accident & Incident Recovery
🪝Off-Road & Mountain Recovery
🪝24/7 Emergency Roadside Assistance

Yesterday wasn’t about towing. It was about showing up when it matters most for our city. We stepped in and volunteered our time, equipment, and expertise to assist our city in the recovery of a vehicle from the Willamette River tied to a tragic incident involving multiple young individuals.

Working alongside local agencies, Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT), engineers and United Search Corps, this was a precision operation in extremely challenging conditions, low visibility, heavy sediment, and no room for error. After working side-by-side with city engineers to lock in the seawall’s capacity, we staged multiple heavy-duty rotators and carried out a precision recovery under full control. This is what real heavy-duty capability looks like. Not just horsepower… but discipline, control, and respect for the situation.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the families & friends affected by this tragedy.

PORTLAND LOOK UP!

Every time you pick up your phone behind the wheel…
you’re not just texting. You’re gambling. And we’re the ones who get called when it goes wrong. Here at Northwestern Towing, we don’t see “close calls.” We see what happens after.

Twisted metal. Flashing lights on I-205. Families standing on the shoulder of Powell Blvd. Lives literally lost & changed in seconds.

📊 Here’s the reality:
• Thousands of crashes in Oregon every year are caused by distracted driving
• Someone is injured or killed every single day because of it
• It only takes a few seconds with your eyes off the road

Let that sink in. This isn’t rare. This is happening right here in Portland on the same roads you drive every day.

⚠️ Do better behind the wheel:
• Put the phone down
• Turn on Do Not Disturb While Driving
• If it can’t wait → pull over
• Eyes up. Hands on the wheel. Every time.

Drive like your family is out there…because someone else’s is.

When the other towing companies said “no”… we said watch this. This wasn’t just a tow. This was a high-risk, low-clearance, zero-margin-for-error transport, and Aaron handled it like a surgeon with steel cables. 🦾🪝

“After two towing companies failed… Northwestern delivered.”

That’s what we do. We show up when it’s difficult. We perform when it matters. We don’t make excuses. And we treat your vehicle like it’s worth six figures… because to you, it is.

Huge shoutout to Aaron for representing what Northwestern Towing is all about. This isn’t luck. This is standard.
